A riveting portrayal of one of the most dramatic and turbulent times in English history. A story of love and lust, seduction and deception, betrayal and murder, it is uniquely told through the perspective of three different, yet equally relentless women - Elizabeth Woodville, Margaret Beaufort and Anne Neville. In their quest for power, they will scheme, manipulate and seduce their way onto the English throneThe year is 1464 and war over who is the rightful King has been ravaging throughout England. It is a bitter dispute between two sides of the same family, the House of York and the House of Lancaster, and these three ruthless women are each desperately vying for the crown"The White Queen is a British television drama series in ten parts, based on Philippa Gregory's historical novel series The Cousins' War, (The White Queen, The Red Queen and The Kingmaker's Daughter)....Woodville is the central character in the novel The White Queen, whilst Beaufort and Neville are the focus of the novels The Red Queen and The Kingmaker's Daughter respectively; however, all three characters appear in all three novels that went to make up the television series."
